Theory:
Then nearly fourteen billion years ago expansion started- wait...
The Earth began to cool,
The autotrophs began to drool,
Neanderthals developed tools,
We built a wall (we built the pyramids!),
Math, science, history, unraveling the mysteries,
That all started with the big bang!
BANG!

Car-ma and Hubris
The story of Niobe is a prime example of the danger of arrogance. Niobe has the audacity to compare herself to Leto, the mother of Artemis and Apollo, thus elevating herself and her children to the level of the divine. Insulted, the two gods strike all of Niobe’s children dead and turn her into a rock that perpetually weeps. Likewise, young PhaĆ«thon, who pridefully believes he can drive the chariot of his father, the Sun, loses control and burns everything in sight before Zeus knocks him from the sky with a thunderbolt. Similar warnings against hubris are found in the stories of Bellerophon, who bridles the winged Pegasus and tries to ride up to Olympus and join the deities’ revelry, and Arachne, who challenges Athena to a weaving contest and is changed into a spider as punishment. Indeed, any type of hubris or arrogance, no matter the circumstance, is an attitude that no god will leave unpunished.
After dinner with the Adoners and Surrogates on Friday,
Leanne: "You're a great driver but you're not God!"
Titus: "I am God haha!"
Leanne: "Don't say things like that!"
Titus: "I'll never get into an accident."
(drops Leanne home)
15 minutes later on the phone...
Titus: "BABE WHAT THE FUCK I JUST GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT, I FUCKING FELL ASLEEP ON THE WHEEL, FUCK THE CAR IS SMASHED, FUCK MAN!"
Omg :(
